Product details
Overview
GBJ1510 from Diodes Incorporated is a 15A standard recovery bridge rectifier in GBJ package, rated for 1000V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.05V forward voltage at 7.5A, and 10µA reverse leakage current at 25°C. It delivers 240A peak surge capability and is designed for AC-to-DC conversion in industrial power supplies and motor control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the GBJ1510 datasheet, GBJ1510 pinout, GBJ1510 application, or GBJ1510 equivalent, key selection criteria include VRRM rating, thermal resistance (0.8°C/W junction-to-case), surge robustness (240A IFSM), and through-hole mounting compatibility with #6 screw hardware.
Technical Context
This single-phase full-wave bridge rectifier integrates four silicon diodes in a monolithic molded plastic package with glass-passivated die construction. Its 1500VRMS case dielectric strength and low IR (≤10µA @ 25°C) support reliable operation under high-voltage transients and elevated ambient temperatures.
The device operates across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature range and exhibits 60pF typical junction capacitance at 1MHz/4V reverse bias. Thermal performance is specified with a 300mm × 300mm × 1.6mm copper plate heatsink, enabling stable 15A average output current at TJ = 150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1000 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage before breakdown; defines safe AC input voltage ceiling (e.g., ≤707V RMS). |
| IF(AV) | 15 A - Average rectified output current with heatsink; requires thermal management for sustained DC load delivery. |
| VF @ 7.5A | 1.05 V - Forward voltage drop per diode path; determines conduction loss (≈16W total at 15A full-wave). |
| IR @ 25°C | 10 µA - Reverse leakage current; ensures minimal standby power loss and signal integrity in high-impedance circuits. |
| IFSM | 240 A - Non-repetitive peak surge current (8.3ms half-sine); withstands inrush during cold-start of capacitive-input supplies. |
| RθJC | 0.8 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables precise heatsink sizing when mounted on specified copper plate. |
Pinout & Package
Package: GBJ - Molded plastic, UL 94V-0 rated, through-hole mountable with #6 screw, 6.6g weight, lead-free tin-plated terminals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| AC1 | Input AC Terminal 1 | One leg of AC input; connects to transformer secondary or line input; symmetrical with AC2. |
| AC2 | Input AC Terminal 2 | Second leg of AC input; completes full-wave bridge input path; polarity not marked on body. |
| + (Anode Common) | Positive DC Output | Full-wave rectified positive output node; ties internally to anodes of two diodes. |
| – (Cathode Common) | Negative DC Output | Full-wave rectified negative output node; ties internally to cathodes of two diodes. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated die construction | Enhances long-term reliability and moisture resistance versus epoxy-passivated alternatives. |
| 1500VRMS case dielectric strength | Supports isolation compliance in safety-critical AC mains interfaces without external creepage reinforcement. |
| 240A peak surge rating | Enables direct use in unfiltered transformer-fed supplies without series NTC or inrush limiters. |
| UL Recognized Component (E95060) | Validates flammability, tracking, and construction per UL 60747-4, reducing end-equipment certification effort. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bridge rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay GBU15K | Same 1000V VRRM, 15A IF(AV), but GBU package (smaller footprint, lower IFSM = 170A). | Limited surge handling; unsuitable for high-inrush transformer-fed designs. | Choose only if board space is constrained and surge stress is low. |
| ON Semiconductor GBPC1510 | Identical ratings and GBJ package, but higher VF (1.1V) and IR (20µA @ 25°C). | Slightly higher conduction loss and standby leakage; same thermal and mechanical fit. | Acceptable where minor efficiency penalty is tolerable and second-source assurance is required. |
Compared with GBU15K and GBPC1510, GBJ1510 offers superior surge immunity (240A vs. 170A/240A) and lowest leakage (10µA), making it optimal for high-reliability industrial rectification where transient robustness and low standby loss are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for GBJ1510?
The GBJ1510 has a specified junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its 15A average current rating assumes operation at TJ = +150°C with proper heatsinking (300mm × 300mm × 1.6mm copper plate). Ambient temperature limits depend on thermal design, but storage remains valid across the same –55°C to +150°C range.
Is GBJ1510 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, GBJ1510 features lead-free tin-plated terminals and complies with EU RoHS Directives 2002/95/EC, 2011/65/EU, and 2015/863/EU. It carries Diodes Incorporated's "Green" designation, confirming halogen- and antimony-free molding compound per their quality definitions.
Can GBJ1510 be used without a heatsink?
No - the 15A IF(AV) rating is specified only with heatsinking. Without a heatsink, derating is severe: maximum continuous current drops to approximately 3.5A at +40°C ambient (per typical thermal curves in DS21219). For unheatsinked operation, consult the datasheet's derating graph and verify junction temperature under actual load conditions.
What does the "10" in GBJ1510 signify?
The "10" in GBJ1510 indicates the device's 1000V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM). The full part number follows Diodes' coding: GBJ (package), 15 (15A rating), and 10 (1000V). Other variants include GBJ1506 (600V) and GBJ1504 (400V), sharing identical package and current rating.
